Hawaiian Slack Key Guitar Masters - George Kahumoku Jr. & Ledward Kaapana

There’s a reason he’s been called Hawaii’s Renaissance man: George Kahumoku Jr.
is a multiple Grammy Award & Hoku Award winning master slack key guitarist,
songwriter, world-traveling performer, high school and college teacher, artist
and sculptor, storyteller and writer, farmer and entrepreneur.

2011 NEA National Heritage Fellowship Recipient, Ledward Kaapana is Hawaii's
premier master Slack Key guitarist. His inventiveness and fluidity, his
versatility in multiple tunings, and his playfulness on stage, make him the
leading master of this art, now recognized nationally by America's most
prestigious award for the arts.
